Open Day 2024
Nottinghack is a Nottingham based group for hackers, makers and crafty creative people! If you like to build, make & learn it’s for you. You’ll probably be interested in learning about and sharing knowledge of electronics, crafts, robotics, DIY, hardware hacking, photography, computing, reverse engineering, prototyping, film making, animation, building RC vehicles and other creative challenges and projects. We have collaboratively built the workspace infrastructure that allows our members to learn, be creative and hack. Originally founded in March 2010, Nottingham Hackspace has since become one of the largest Hackspaces in the UK.
We will be running a number of events throughout the day, from soldering and lock picking to demos of combat robots, laser cutting and 3D Printing. Several tours will also be running if you'd like to become a member (you must be 18 or over to become a member).
